This session is part of "Conversations on Inclusive Teaching: Summer Series 2021," supporting Caltech faculty and instructors who would like to implement and enhance inclusive and equitable practices in their teaching. Each conversation offers a short overview of a few key inclusive teaching topics or practices, with a brief overview of evidence and examples of use, and then engages participants in discussion about adapting and applying them in Caltech classes. The series is offered via Zoom; Caltech faculty and instructors are welcome to participate in individual or multiple sessions.
